Patient's question:
I found out this morning that I am pregnant, and it has been over 50 days now. My boyfriend is also very eager for me to have an abortion, but I am extremely scared. I want to have an abortion under anesthesia. I would like to ask, how long does an abortion under anesthesia take?Doctor's answer:
Hello! The time for an abortion without anesthesia is mainly divided into three parts: before the surgery, during the surgery, and after the surgery. Adding up these three parts, the total time is approximately 4 hours. The pre-surgery check takes 1-2 hours, the surgery itself lasts 3-5 minutes, and the post-surgery anti-inflammatory treatment takes about 1 hour. It is recommended to choose the best time for an abortion and have the surgery at a regular, professional hospital during this optimal period to ensure the safety of the surgery and avoid postoperative complications.
